Review FBC: Firebreak (PS5) - PS Plus Shooter Proves Remedy Should Have Stayed in Its Lane
Stick to what you know
FBC: Firebreak is a funny kind of game, especially from Remedy Entertainment. In an odd first, Remedy — the team behind single player games like Alan Wake 2 — has pivoted to multiplayer with its latest project. FBC: Firebreak is a first-person co-op shooter set within the Remedy Verse. And while there’s plenty to like...
Review Alan Wake 2: The Lake House (PS5) - Stellar DLC Paints a Path Forward for the Remedy Universe
The next step into the Remedy-verse
Remedy is the master of blending genre, tone, and style. It proved it with its seminal sequel Alan Wake 2 in 2023, and continued to prove it with its whimsical DLC Night Springs earlier this year. That streak continues with The Lake House, the conclusion to the world of Alan Wake (for now at least), which tightens...
Review Alan Wake 2: Night Springs (PS5) - A Short Yet Sweet Example of Remedy's Pedigree
Remedy has a (night) spring in its step
If you think Remedy Games is weird and wonderful, wait till you get a load of its episodic Alan Wake 2 DLC, Night Springs. After blowing us away with its horror sequel – one of the very few 10/10 games of 2023 for us – we’ve been dying for some more Remedy goodness. Now that it’s here though, is Night...
Review Alan Wake 2 (PS5) - A Nightmare We Never Want to Wake Up From
A Remedy for success
Sitting down to write this review makes us feel a little like Alan Wake himself, tapping away at his typewriter in the Writer’s Room. We’re not quite sure where the page will take us, even though we have so much swirling around in our mind. That’s the effect of Alan Wake 2; a rip-roaring horror experience from Remedy...
Review Alan Wake Remastered (PS5) - Compelling Thriller Derailed by Tedious, Repetitive Combat
Alan Wake-me-up-when-it-gets-to-the-good-bit
Over a decade after the original release, former Xbox exclusive psychological thriller Alan Wake is finally making its way to PlayStation consoles as Alan Wake Remastered. For existing fans, this is an opportunity to soak in the nostalgia and revisit a beloved title from yesteryear, now looking better...
Review Control: Ultimate Edition (PS5) - A Great Example of What a PS5 Upgrade Can Offer
< A game/experience worth discovering/exploring >
Control’s road to release on PlayStation 5 has been a bit of a rocky one. Between the Ultimate Edition boxing out early adopters from a next-gen upgrade, certain users accidentally being given the upgrade they were told wasn’t possible, and now Control: Ultimate Edition releasing as a PlayStation...

News New Control Video Reunites Remedy and Poets of the Fall
Moments before the storm
One of the recurring motifs in Remedy's games for a number of years now has been its inclusion of music by Finnish rock band Poets of the Fall. Starting with 2003's – wow, that's a long time ago – Max Payne 2, Poets have featured on every Remedy game going forward. The exception is Xbox exclusive Quantum Break, but there...

E3 2018 Remedy Pulls Back the Curtain on Control
Assuming direct control
Despite Sony stressing they'd be bringing only four games with them to E3 this year, it was generally accepted there'd be something more on display, even if it was just small. Not only did Sony show off a plethora of trailers during what was sort of an intermission for the people there in-person, there were some pretty big...
